  • Neuronal Network Dynamics in 2D and 3D in vitro Neuroengineered Systems

    by Monica Frega ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    The book presents a new, powerful model of neuronal networks, consisting of a three-dimensional neuronal culture in which 3D neuronal networks are coupled to micro-electrode-arrays (MEAs). It discusses the main advantages of the three-dimensional system compared to its two-dimensional counterpart, and shows that the network dynamics, recorded during both spontaneous and stimulated activity, ...

  • Organic Transistor Devices for In Vitro Electrophysiological Applications

    by Andrea Spanu ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This thesis reports on a novel system for extracellular recordings of the activity of excitable cells, which relies on an organic, charge-modulated field-effect transistor (FET) called OCMFET. The book shows how, thanks to the intrinsic biocompatibility, lightness, and inexpensiveness of the material used, this new system is able to overcome several problems typical of of “classic” electronic and ...

  • Visual Development

    by Nigel W. Daw ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The only book on the market to cover the psychophysics, anatomy, physiology, and clinical deficits of the developing visual system in an accessible format and length. The visual system is the most commonly studied aspect of the nervous system and is the primary model for the study of both normal development and the effects of environment and sensory deprivation on development. This third edition ... Read more

  • Neurally Based Measurement and Evaluation of Environmental Noise

    by Yoshiharu Soeta, Yoichi Ando ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book deals with methods of measurement and evaluation of environmental noise based on an auditory neural and brain-oriented model. The model consists of the autocorrelation function (ACF) and the interaural cross-correlation function (IACF) mechanisms for signals arriving at the two ear entrances. Even when the sound pressure level of a noise is only about 35 dBA, people may feel annoyed due ... Read more

  • The Catecholaminergic Innervation of the Rat Amygdala

    by Esther Asan ...
    Series series Medicine (R0)
    Experimental evidence indicated that catecholamines are able to modulate information processing in the amygdaloid complex. The present study provides a detailed documentation of ultrastructural and neurochmical characteristics of dopaminergic, noradrinergic, and adrenergic afferent fibers and of their target structures in central, basal and intercalated amygdaloid nuclei. ...

  • Brain-Computer Interfaces

    Revolutionizing Human-Computer Interaction

    Edited by Bernhard Graimann, Brendan Z. Allison, Gert Pfurtscheller ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    A brain-computer interface (BCI) establishes a direct output channel between the human brain and external devices. BCIs infer user intent via direct measures of brain activity and thus enable communication and control without movement. This book, authored by experts in the field, provides an accessible introduction to the neurophysiological and signal-processing background required for BCI, ... Read more

  • Fundamentals of Neurodegeneration and Protein Misfolding Disorders

    by Martin Beckerman ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This unique text introduces students and researchers to the world of misfolded proteins, toxic oligomers, and amyloid assemblages, and the diseases of the brain that result. During the past few years the connections between failures in protein quality control and neurological disorders have been reinforced and strengthened by discoveries on multiple fronts. These findings provide novel insights on ... Read more

  • DJ-1/PARK7 Protein

    Parkinson’s Disease, Cancer and Oxidative Stress-Induced Diseases

    Edited by Hiroyoshi Ariga, Sanae M. M. Iguchi-Ariga ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This book reviews the functions and roles of DJ-1 in various oxidative stress-related diseases and applications of DJ-1 and its binding compounds to the diseases. The DJ-1 gene was first found to be a novel oncogene in 1997 and later, in 2003, also found to be a causative gene for a familial form of Parkinson’s disease (PD), park7. The DJ-1 gene is therefore the first gene discovered that is known ... Read more

  • Müller Cells in the Healthy and Diseased Retina

    by Andreas Reichenbach, Andreas Bringmann ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Müller cells may be used in the future for novel therapeutic strategies to protect neurons against apoptosis (for example, somatic gene therapy), or to differentiate retinal neurons from Müller/stem cells. Meanwhile, a proper understanding of the gliotic responses of Müller cells in the diseased retina, and of their protective vs. detrimental effects, is essential for the development of efficient ...

  • Folding for the Synapse

    Edited by Vincent O'Connor, Andreas Wyttenbach ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Folding for the Synapse addresses the current view on how protein folding and misfolding, controlled by molecular chaperones, contribute to synapse function and dysfunction. Molecular chaperones have been studied in relation to de novo protein folding, but there is increasing awareness that chaperone function is required for the regulation of protein dynamics when functioning physiologically as an ...
